I have a web form in which anyone can fill out the information and i recieve the information.
<asp:TextBox ID="Body" runat="server" Columns="55" Height="101px" Rows="30" TextMode="MultiLine"
Width="400px"></asp:TextBox>
The problem is while entering the information in this text box, if anyone used enter line or different line or any kind of formatting, as a result i don't get the formatted page or with lines. I see only a paragraph which is very difficult to read and understand.
How to make my textbox compatible with all kind of formatting options so that even if someone paste information from word etc in the text box , i should get the formatter information just like the user pasted the information in the text box...
I have a web form that has a few multi-line text box controls which the user will enter lots of information in paragraphs. How can I persist their line breaks and tabs into SQL 2005 so that when the information is retrieved on a different page; the line breaks and formatting is preserved?

I want to be able to store strings in the DB but some are long and i want to format them such that when i copy them out of SQL and past them into notepad they have line breaks to break up the otherwise single line that runs on forever and hard to read.
lets say i am storing a string of all the session variables like this, how do i include line breaks in here?
StringBuilder theBody = new StringBuilder();
theBody.Append("Session Values: " + "
");
foreach (string s in Session.Keys)
theBody.Append(s + ":" + Session[s] + "
");
We invested in some nice widescreen monitors at work so we all have nice 1920x1200 resolution and a wide visual studio window when it is maximized. The problem is when we hit ctrl-k-d to autoformat the aspx code, it seems to default to a line length for a 4:3 monitor. Is there a way to overwrite this setting?

I have a gridview on my aspx page. I know we can format gridview row in rowdatabound() of gridview. But my problem is bit different.
In my gridview, i have a column customer code, a single code can repeat more than once successively. I want for one customer code, row color should be blue and as soon as code changes colour should be yellow for that code. Similarly when code changes again color should be blue again.
In this way color of my gridview rows should be blue and yellow alternately based on my customer code.I have arranged customer code in order by using sql order by clause.
I have a listview control qith a datapager. I'm using a linkbutton for next and previous. I have a css class that makes the text Arial, and bold. It also sets the size to 10px. When I run the page, the link button is Arial and bold, but I can't change the size of the text. I've tried setting it to 10px, 8px, even 5px, 10pt, and xx-small. Nothing changes the font size. My customer wants the next and previous buttons to look a certain way. I'll have to manage paging manually if I can't get this figured out.

I've got a Gridview in which I have a column that shows percentages. I use the 0:P2 to format the percentage into readable format. However when the user 'edits' the particular row the percentage sign % still shows up in the textbox. When the user tries to save/update their change I throw an error on the % sign.
Is there a way to show the % only when the row isn't in an editable state?
